The American Red Cross Director urges women to choose nursing now as a profession of great opportunity. Nursing advances with war, expanding beyond bedside care to maternal, child health, industrial welfare, and public health work. After the war, Europe and the United States will need highly trained nurses and training schools. Red Cross schools operate abroad, and many named nurses and addresses appear among the promising candidates seeking entry.
